intro imports a few of boyds wheels on contract . the imported versions are the chrome timeless 6 and the magneato. you can get these wheels for a whole lot less than ordering them through a boyd dealer. i even got both center caps with mine. the boyd cap is polished cast with there logo and the intro cap is chromed. coys custom wheels sells these set for $1050 and have had no returns. i had a set of rallye boyds that i paid $500 a wheel for and i cant tell any difference in the way it is produced. i am happy with what i got for the money invested for 20" wheels. just as cheap as centerline but looks a whole lot better in my opinion. if you need any more info let me know. they have both magneatos and timeless 6's in the 6 lug chrome wheels.

Good choice! I think you'll love them. I have the timeless 6's also but mine were dipped in chrome. I went with the 18X9.5 with 285/50 nitto 404 tires. The chrome was a little more, but I love them. I don't know how to put pics on here.

I've never heard of Boyd or Intro "importing" each other's wheels. That's gotta be one of the silliest things I've heard in a LONG time.

What exactly do you mean by "importing?"

I just got a response about the center caps from the place I bought the wheels from. They told me that the cap I have is the new engraved billet cap that comes with all billet wheels. The old cast cap with the sticker now only comes on the cast wheels. That's fine with me because I like this cap better.

This Intro looks like a Boyd Design to me?


subcontracting is more like it or buying the stlye perhaps?
Intro or Boyd seem like great products so who ever is making what as long as there light and don't bend I'm buying.

Very sweet looking wheel.
There's also a guy selling chrome versions of the cast wheel on ebay for around 1000 20x8.5, Don't know about the quality seems too good to be true.

Regardless Those wheels look awesome, Good pick J,
i have a set of those cast chrome versions....i have had both billet 2 pieces and these cast wheels. they are the nicest wheels i have seen for $1000 in a 20"

Man, with that color, and those wheels, I'd bet it would look awesome lifted hahaha

I like those centercaps better than mine. The red on the Boyd oval is kind of fading into a dark pink now. If I were keeping the truck, I'd probably buy some caps like those and swap them out.

Good choice in wheels

BTW, definitely do something like zoopseal before you use them. These wheels are a PITA to keep spotless, they drive me nuts.

I'm sure it would too but I think I'm keeping mine low. Thanks for the compliments! Like I said earlier I like the new cap design better than the old one. It just seems to look cleaner.

Tony, do any of our sponsors carry Zoopseal?
